Rooted macrophytes reduce sediment CH4 storage and net production: An experimental approach using a novel scanning method

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Methane (CH4) emissions from freshwater ecosystems are significant but rarely quantified in vegetated zones. We assessed the influence of five macrophyte species that root in the sediment differing in growth form and root biomass on CH4 emissions and sediment gas storage.

Yield of Short Duration Drought Tolerant Transplant Aman Rice Varieties as Influenced by Integrated Nitrogen and Weed Management Practices

open access: yesAdvances in Agriculture, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Rice productivity varies substantially across rice varieties along with judicious nitrogenous fertilizer and weed management (WM) practices. At AFL, Bangladesh Agricultural University, we tested two cultivars of short‐duration drought‐tolerant T. aman (autumn) rice, Bangladesh Rice Research Institute (BRRI) dhan66 and BRRI dhan71, and how different ...

Potential of Eichhornia crassipes for biomass refining

open access: yesJournal of Industrial Microbiology & Biotechnology, 2008
Here we explore the utilization of Eichhornia crassipes, commonly known as water hyacinth, as a competitive source of biomass for conversion to fuel. Ecologically, E. crassipes is the most undesirable of a class of noxious and invasive aquatic vegetation.

Performance of Concrete Using Water Hyacinth Ash as a Partial Cement Substitute

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Concrete is one of the most widely used construction materials, with cement as its primary component. However, cement production significantly contributes to CO2 emissions, posing environmental challenges. This study investigates the use of water hyacinth ash (WHA) as a sustainable partial replacement for cement in C‐30 grade concrete.

Allelopathic Effects of Water Hyacinth [Eichhornia crassipes]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
Eichhornia crassipes (Mart) Solms is an invasive weed known to out-compete native plants and negatively affect microbes including phytoplankton. The spread and population density of E. crassipes will be favored by global warming. The aim here was to identify compounds that underlie the effects on microbes. The entire plant of E. crassipes was collected

Effects of Heterologous Protein Substitutions of Fishmeal on the Culture of the Chinese Soft‐Shelled Turtle (Pelodiscus sinensis): A Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesAquaculture Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
With the global aquaculture industry growing rapidly, fishmeal (FM) occupies an important position in aquatic animal nutrition as a traditional feed ingredient, but its production is facing rising costs and sustainability challenges, making the search for high‐quality heterologous proteins particularly essential.

Synergistic Effects of Jatropha Biodiesel and TiO2 Nanoparticles on the Performance and Emission Characteristics of a Diesel Engine

open access: yesJournal of Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The performance and emission characteristics of a water‐cooled, four‐stroke, three‐cylinder compression ignition (CI) engine were examined in this work in relation to the synergetic effects of titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles and Jatropha methyl ester (JME) biodiesel.
